User profiles disappearing

This is a problem we are experiencing with OS 10.6.8 on an X Serve with client iMacs. I have some users that have been on our system for 4 months, in which time they've built up work only to find it missing since our return from the Christmas break.
All user accounts are set up in the same manner, in the same network share, and using time machine on the X serve are backed up to our SAN. I'm currently unable to restore lost work/profiles, as whilst the user is visible in Workgroup Manager, looking on the iMac they've used, the share directory or the Time Machine backups, I see absolutely no trace of their profile.
Any help is appreciated

i had one mac and spilt water on it, the motherboard fried so i had to buy a used one...being in school and all. it is a MC375lla

i do not have a backup of it, so i am thinking about replacing my old hard drive from the water damaged into this one, not even sure if that would work, but it did not seem to be damaged, as i recovered all the files i wanted off of it to put onto this mbp
the previous owner didnt have it set to boot, they had all their settings left on it and tried to edit all the names on it, had a bunch of server info and printers etc crap on it. i do not believe he edited the terminal system though--he doesnt seem to terribly bright(if thats possible)
tbh i hate lion compared to the old one i had, this one has so many more issues-overheating,fan noise, cd dvd noise
if you need screenshots or data of anything else as away
[problem is i do not want to start from scratch if there is a chance of fixing it, this one did not come with disks or anything like my first. so i dont even know if i could, and how it sets now i am basically starting from scratch, because now all my apps are reset but working, i am hoping to get my data back somehow though, i lost all of my bookmarks and editing all my apps and setting again would be a pain

User profile disappeared after reboot

I rebooted my MBP Retina today. When booted back up I couldn't log in, wouldn't take my password. I booted into recovery mode to reset the password vua terminal. My user profile was not there, so I reset the password of another profile, logged in, checked users & groups again, my profile is not there. WHen I borwse the disk the folder structure of my username is there but profile is not. - Can i recover from this? I do NOT have a time machine backup.

Hello jimjimk
All you would have to is go to System Preferences > Users & Groups and then create the user again. Pay attention to what you are creating and at least make sure that the short name is the same name as the folder in the Users folder. Once that is don’t you should see and alert that states A folder in the Users folder already has the name "short name". Would you like to use that folder as the Home folder for this user account?" just say yes, log out and then log back in to the user that was just created and all should be good.
How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2196
8. Use the Accounts pane in System Preferences to create a new user with the same short name as the home folder moved in the previous step.
9. Click OK when prompted with "A folder in the Users folder already has the name "short name". Would you like to use that folder as the Home folder for this user account?". This will correct the ownership on all files in the Home.
10. Log out.
11. Log in as the user created in the previous step.

After upgrade on MacBook my user profile disappeared and the whole thing is weird

I am running Mac OS X, version 10.7.5. My prfile pix disappeared, got a flower instead. Changed that to another photo, that is now a gray silhouette. What is going on?

Do you mean here in the forums?

User Profile Services - Sync Connection disappearing after a few days - "Moss MA not found"

Hi,
This may sound like a common problem but i can't seem to find a solution.
I recently installed a SharePoint 2010 farm. The farm is currently SP1, Aug12 CU.
I created the user profile service application without any problems and created a connection, sync worked...everything was fine. Few days after, i noticed the connection disappeared! I tried recreating it but i got the above error. Tried deleting the SA
and recreating it but still the same.
I checked everything:
- FIM services are started
- User profile services (both) are started
- It is not an AD connection timeout (error comes up in a second and containers populate just fine)
- All permissions were given correctly (keep in mind this has worked before)
- Tried updating to the Aug12 CU
Then i remembered i installed the farm with the sql servers mapped with FQDN instead of NETBIOS or Alias.
That led me to try to enable netbios on the SA via PowerShell but to no avail.
So basically my question is...is there anything i can do or is re installing the farm the only solution?

Hi All,
Trevor, L:ooks like your suggestion works I juts tried creating a UPS with the FQDN and then changed to using the NetBIOS name. But the caveat is I am not using the NetBIOS name as the default database, I am using another DB Servet
Whatever we do at this point needs to be tested in DEV so we need DEV Server. I have never seen an environment successfully maintained using the FDQN If it were mr I would have already rebuilt it only takes 90 minutes or so to stand a an environment
up.
Would It would be better to Build another farm next to the first one and remove the content dbs from the old farm and move them to the new one and attaché them to new WebApps. I think it would take less time and be healthier in the long run
to move away from using the FQDN for SQL Completely, I don't believe its supported anyway..
This post from an MSDN Blog is titled NEVER, NEVER, AGAIN. Its just one example.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/momalek/archive/2010/10/29/never-again-never-use-a-fqdn-for-the-sharepoint-2010-sql-server-name.aspx
I should have said this when I wrote the rename response, its really to attempt the rename or start over... Though Trevor is correct, if you specify the NetBIOS name of the instance when creating the UPS it will work.. Shame I didn't think of it,Trevor
you rock..
Trevor, I would like to get your thoughts as well??? To build another Farm or to continue using the one you have with an FQDN?

I am having a serious issue with all my apps disappearing/not working- user profiles

i will list the things i have done in the past 24 hours, hopefully one of you knows what happened...thank you in advance
first off, my situation- was that i bought a macbook pro(about a year ago) with lion or snow leopord it is software 10.7.5 i dont know what the guy did but when he sent me the computer the username was off and so was the home folder, i changed the username with ease but the home folder stayed tbd and i couldnt figure out how to change it. well it finally got on my nerves enough from looking at it that i wanted to change it today that put me into the situation i am in. Here is what i have changed:
-I added a second profile as to see if i could change the home emblem file named tbd to what i wanted. This worked or so i thought.
- then shared and permissions showed tbd(me) so i wanted to change that also so i went into systempreferences>users and groups>login options>network account server and clicked join/open directory utility. this is where i believe i went wrong i read in a forum that this is what you needed to change to make it look how i wanted it to. under active directory it still had this guys name gtmb04_evan so i changed it to my name like the forum said, well his name is back up even though i changed it. and this is when everything stopped working.
symptoms: all my applications act like they are newly downloaded and make me set them up.
- my home screen is nothing like it was before, no apps are on the desktop and the bar along the bottom only has the basic ones
- i tried to take the second username off of administrater which made me restart my cp(all my stuff looked normal until this, but didnt work)
-my launchpad wasnt showing any apps they simply looked blank
- my firefox along with many other apps wouldnt even start prior to reseting and gave me a message with something like couldnt find or access user profile( i forget the entire message)
please please help me, i hate this right now and have no idea what to do, all my files are still under my name, that when i thought i changed tbd- it apparently just made a new folder under users which didnt show up until the restart, i do not have a time machine set up on this computer because i hated the lion setup and couldn't get it to operate correctly

Customized User Profiles not loading for Network Users

I manage Macs in public computer labs and classrooms at a university. My general set up is as follows:
Clients are running 10.8.5, OD Masters are running 10.7.5. Open Directory Master to manage client preferences for Login window and screen saver. Clients bind to Active Directory for authentication purposes only. Networked users home directories are stored locally then deleted at log out. Using Deploy Studio to image and restore clients.
My customized user profiles are stored in /User Templates/Non_Localized.lproj.(I also update English.lproj for any local users that may need to be created for various reasons).
Recently I have come across a situation where, randomly, my customized user profile does not load at Login, and I am given the out-of-the-box default Apple profile. This is happening in 11 of my 14 labs. I have three labs that seem to not be affected by this.
On some labs I manage the DHCP, some labs I do not, and rely on our Networking group to supply DHCP and DNS. Because of this setup I have six different DNS server that may be in the mix. Two are Unix boxes, the other four are the Active Directory Domain Control servers. I did create a spreadsheet of all the AD/OD settings for each lab to see if I could find some kind of pattern, but don't see a way to upload it.
The one thing I do notice is that when I do a mass login using a shell script via Apple Remote Desktop, when the profile fails to build correctly, the user login is quick, much quicker than when the correct profile loads. Almost as if a packet is sent the the OD server, it's rejected, and bam, Apple's default profile loads.
I have flushed the DNS cache of the local clients using killall --HUP mDNSResponder
I've got one week to figure this out before classes start, so if you have a clue as to what's going on, I sure would be grateful.
Here are logs from both the admin's account and the user's account when the default profile fails to build:

App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS Client with hotfix 2 breaks frequently on Windows 2012R2 with User Profile Disks enabled

Hi All,
I am at my wit's end trying to troubleshoot this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
We are having serious stability issues with App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS in our environment with User Profile Disks enabled.
We have applied the latest hotfix but the issues persist.
The main problems are:
1. Periodically the client seems to become corrupted and all applications stop working for all users. All applications including the official Microsoft Office 2013 ones - not just our packages.
The symptoms are the same as if I change the App-V Client Service account to run under a user account instead of SYSTEM, so it suggests a file access issue. The log files also hint at this, and one of there errors is similar to this:
The virtual application 'C:\Users\rds.user9\AppData\Local\Microsoft\AppV\Client\Integration\A3EF9C01-C0E9-4AC5-B21F-DB9B1D2F700C\Root\Mindjet\MindManager 14\MindManager.exe' could not be started because the
App-V Subsystem 'Virtual Filesystem' could not be initialized. {error: 0x6740090A-0x20003}
Once this problem occurs the only way I have found to fix it is to either completely remove and reinstall the client, or (perhaps this is the big clue) rename the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\MAV\Configuration\Volumes , unpublish
an application, then republish said application.
I don't even think it matters which application gets published. The point seems to be that this 'Volumes' key gets rewritten.
I am highly suspicious that our issues are caused by User Profile disks in our RDS environment, as when I disable them on our staging collection all of these issues seem to disappear.
I have made sure all of the servers have permissions on the share (folder and share permissions). It doesn't seem to make a difference.
2. Some application fail completely with User Profile Disks enabled. If we switch the setting from "Store all settings and data on the user profile disk" to "Store Only the following folders" there seems to be some improvement,
in that at least one application that fails on the other setting starts to work.
3. We have already set that NTFS 8 dot 3 reg fix some time ago.
SOS!
We have gone live this week (not my call) and this is having disasterous consequences. :(
Thanks in advance,
John

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
I did try this a while ago without success, although it may be worth revisiting with SP2 applied.
I have left this client now.
I left them a Powershell script that deletes HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\AppV\MAV\Configuration\Volumes
and triggers an Unpublish/Publish of an application we have deployed to all of the servers.
This seems to work, but a fix would be better than a workaround.
Not really my problem now though - I did my best.
Thanks,
John

Created a new user profile but it does not show on Login screen or fast sw

I have created a new profile that I want to be an admin profile. The creation of the profile went ok. I can see and edit the profile. When I reboot or logout, the login menu only show the inital profile that I set up when I got the system. The new user id also does not show up when I go to my fast switch menu.
My original user id is set to automatically logon when the system is started. I did try and set the new userid to be the one that started automatically on bootup and then both profiles appeared in the startup menu and fast switching menu.
If I switch back to having my original user id be the id that automatically logs in on bootup then the new user id disappears again from the login and fast switch menus. I really don't want to startup on my admin id.
Any ideas?

No not yet. I am still researching the problem. I was hoping someone in the discussion forum could help. Let me know if you find a resolution.

User Profile Pictures not deleting / replacing

Hello,
I have been struggling with this issue for a couple of weeks and think I may need some help. I have a user profile sync application which works fine, it syncs several attributes from AD into SharePoint, it also exports user profile pictures back to
AD for Exchange and Lync to use, this all works fine.
I was asked to replace a picture for a user, which I did using the 'Manage User Profiles' page in Central Admin. I didn't realise there was an issue until I was asked again a week later, it seems the update had not worked. I tried again, and
lo and behold the picture managed to revert back to the old one again.
After a lot of messing around deleting the picture, syncing, adding the new picture, syncing again etc I could not get the new picture to stay, the old one kept coming back. I do not think the issue is related to the sync, but more with SharePoint itself,
here is a symptom I believe is related:-
I delete a user's picture from 'Manage User Profiles', the picture is gone and the user's mysite page shows the placeholder pic.
Looking in the mysites site collection in User%20Photos/Forms/AllItems.aspx the 3 pictures for the user have disappeared. However if I browse to the url of the picture - User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/*username*_SThumb.jpg (or mthumb or lthumb) the
picture appears in my browser.
Next if I add a new picture for the same user through central admin, I then see the new picture in their mysite, I can also see 3 thumbnails of the user's photo under the mysites site collection in User%20Photos/Forms/AllItems.aspx
So far so good, however, if I browse to the url of the picture (including the filename as above) then I am shown the old picture :S
So it appears that the pictures in User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/_w and User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/_t are updating with the new picture, but the pictures in User%20Photos/Profile%20Pictures/ do not get updated, or even deleted properly when they
are removed.
Hope somebody can shed some light on this as it's really annoying me now! Thanks :)

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the replacing picture not work properly in MySite.
I tried to reproduce the issue in my environment(SharePoint server 2013+SP1), it works without any issue.
Did the issue occur for all the users?
To narrow down whether the issue is related to the User Profile service, you can use other accounts to check whether it works.
If that is the case, you can recreate the user profile service application to check whether it works.
If your environment does not install any updates, you can install SP1 or latest update to check whether it works.
You can also check the event log and ULS log to see if anything unexpected occurred.
To check event log, click the Start button and type “Event Viewer” in the Search box.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

Jason

Firefox is only displaying one of the two user profiles on my computer

I just added my husband onto my computer by creating a user profile for him. It seemed fine at first, but then it disappeared.After researching the problem I think what probably happened was that I forgot to uncheck the "Don't ask at start up" box in the Firefox-choose user profile box. How can I get back to this box and uncheck it? I can't find it.

Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each user with its own profile.

I can't open downloaded files because other USER Profile defaults

I inherited a laptop using Vista, which has Firefox vs.27.0.1.
I set up a new user profile for Firefox, using my name.
When I download a file, it shows up in the download section (the arrow at the top right of the address bar)
When I click on it and open it...another Users information appears c:/USERS/ADAM/DESKTOP/DESKTOP
The file tries to open and then disappears.
How to I change my setup so that I can download AND open files without them being blocked by the original user?

Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

Publisher 2013 - will not open under DOMAIN user profile.

Publisher 2013 - will not open/launch under a normal user profile. mspub.exe shows in taskmanager then disappears. This is a Windows 7 machine.

Hi,
If we create a new Windows account on the computer and start Publisher with the new account. Does it work?
If so, we maybe consider recreating the user profile of the specified account.
If the issue persists with the new account, please repair the Office program and then try again.

Lost User profile, permission changes and screwed up Time Machine.

Hello.
I have had a pretty nasty 24 hours as my 6 week old MacBook Pro went down yesterday and I nearly lost everything.
My mac had gone to sleep while I was eating my christmas dinner and for some reason I had to hard restart a couple of hours later as it wouldn't respond. When it came to the log-in screen, my admin user account had disappeared so I logged in to my wife's admin profile and could see my user profile was still there under 'users' with the rest of the accounts. All permissions had been changed and I was locked out of everything.
I then proceeded to repair permissions and then boot from the Leopard DVD disc and nothing was happening to bring my user back. I couldn't add another admin user as it was reporting my hard drive as 0k available and not enough space to proceed.
I then found out that my Time Machine backups were screwed as well but I could still see the data (thank god) and have just re-installed Leopard, hesitantly, and manually transferred data (photos, work, etc) from the Time Machine external hd.
Has anyone experienced any of this behaviour with their machines? Should I be concerned because I have no faith in 10.5 at the moment after this.
The last thing I installed was the security update released mid-December.
Can anyone shine any light on what might have gone wrong?
Kind regards.
Damian.

Won't install on Win7 Home - says no admin tho I'm admin & only user profile

Running Acer laptop Win7 Home edition, Avira Antivirus, Windows Firewall. Downloaded Firefox installer stub from Mozilla. On running it, it says 'extracting' then shows a message saying "Some facilities may not work installing with current user" and shows two options: Run with current user and Administrator (password to be filled only for Administrator).
Click on current user and the program disappears - nothing happens. There is only 1 user profile on this system - current user, called 'a' with administrator rights and no password. Clicking on Administrator insists on password, will not accept blank password field and disappears.
I created an Administrator ID with password and logged in but the same two options again pop up - and the same disappearance of the program once either is chosen.
Tried with Avira and Firewall disabled. Makes no difference. Was running Firefox earlier version with current user profile and no problems. When program upgraded itself, this problem has started so that I have to use IE or Chrome.
I'm typing this from my desktop system where Firefox is running fine.

Please see my query - there is no 'right click' option during install - it only provides 2 options - run with current user or as Administrator. I have clicked on administrator and the program disappears. I have created Administrator User with Admin rights, logged in and tried to install - same result. It simply refuses to accept that the user "Administrator" with admin rights has admin rights.

Transferring dreamweaver preferences to new user profile in CS3

I have been having Vista problems that may be caused by a
corrupt user
profile so have created a new one and transferred files etc.
Dreamweaver treats this as a new user and file associations
etc have all
disappeared. I have spent some time setting up everything as
I need it
for my v hosts set up. Importing all the site definitions was
a 2
second job. Is there a simple way to transfer the preferences
across as
easily or does anyone know the relevant registry location and
procedure
that would accomplish the same in CS3 on Vista?
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Jan

Thanks Joe - especially for speed of reply.
I think trying to be clever with moving my profiles to
another partition
got me into this so I am being ultra careful with back ups!
Thanks again.
